On Cutting and Confused Standards.

I just read that a regional court in Germany has ruled that the ritual circumcision of boys amounts to ‘bodily harm,’ and has declared it to be illegal. Jews and Muslims are protesting, of course, as you’d expect. Let them protest; it’s a free country and the right to protest is axiomatic. Just lock the bastards up if they continue cutting bits off the bodies of children below the age of consent, and all in the name of a cultural tradition based on an ancient and unprovable belief system. What else can it be but bodily harm?

Angela Merkel disagrees with me. She says there’s going to be federal legislation permitting the practice, since to ban it would make Germany a laughing stock. I hardly think so, Angela. I think it would be truer to say that moving to permit the physical abuse of children will present Germany as a cowardly country, obsessed with political correctness and afraid to stand up to the innately abusive nature of the Judaic tradition. And isn’t it odd that they rail against the practice of adult Muslim women wearing veils, while allowing children to have pieces cut away from their bodies?

I find it interesting, too, that women’s rights groups everywhere are rightly up in arms at the barbaric practice of circumcising young girls, as required in certain cultures. I think maybe we need a men’s rights movement, too.
